Consumer Electronics Show Awards Cannabis Company Then Bans it from Using the Word ‘Cannabis’

Ohio Cannabis District naming conventions...

Keep Labs, a Cannabis Company has won an Innovation Award Honoree award for CES 2020 and has been banned from saying the word…

This is part of the inspiration for Ohio Cannabis District. There are rules and laws that can govern how we carry on in our day to day lives. Though, on the CNET website, it was stated, “Keep Labs, the company that makes Keep, is nowhere to be found in any of the sprawling show floors that make up CES in Las Vegas. The reason? CTA, the organization behind both CES and the CES Innovation Award, barred Keep Labs from using the word “cannabis” on its booth or on any marketing materials — in spite of marijuana being legal to buy in Nevada.” (https://www.cnet.com/culture/cannabis-tech-barred-ces-2020-like-sex-tech-last-year/)

And while there are several ways to support as well as disagree with this, so that Ohio is able to be competitive and on par with neighboring states, we have taken it upon ourselves to develop the site that you are seeing now.

It is important that we work together to help create a framework, a foundation to support cannabis use in Ohio…
